From fashion to art: experimental approaches to the traditional corset.
Created to contort the female body into fashionable silhouettes, corsets have become a popular motif for modern textile artists. Beginning with step-by-step instructions for making a simple fabric corset, this fascinating guide goes on to explore innovative approaches to construction, from using unusual materials such as metal and paper to up-cycling or repurposing existing garments to make a statement. Filled with exercises for fashioning intimate garments and wearable art in two and three dimensions, Experimental Corsets showcases a range of inspiring work and installations by contemporary artists.
